I think that the hardest math lesson for me to learn was multiplication. When I was younger, I just couldn't get it. But when I could do it, I would be slow, and it would take me a minute to do like ten multiplication problems. It took me a long time to finally get the hang of it. Like I thought that when you multiply 10 and 5 it would equal 15. I thought that you replace the zero with five, and that's how you do it. 

But in second grade my teacher would give us multiplication sheets to do in class, and there would be levels like up to level 12 I think. It all depends on how much you could do in a matter of time. The levels were like if you were on level ten you would be multiplying by ten. So that helped me a lot, and I got faster, and it became easier. I found out that in that equation 10 times 5  you have to replace the one with five not zero. But I also learned the whole thing of multiplication, not just that problem. So that's how I basically learned from my mistake in multiplication, and how I got better. From then on it was easy and now I'm a pro, not to brag and all. I'm not that pro, but I'm pro enough.
